RE: Custom Resolution Utility (CRU)
I am trying to solve a problem with the Dell U3011 monitor, NVidia GeForce GT 430, DisplayPort connection, and Windows 7 64-bit Pro that I reported here: http://tinyurl.com/a6nby4s (http://en.community.dell.com/ support-forums/ desktop/f/ 3515/p/19455967/ 20140917.aspx).
The monitor is running at its native 2560x1600 resolution. Googling around, there are other reports of this problem, for example here: http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1507324. The problem I'm seeing is exactly as described in that link. I used CRU.exe to disable all of the resolutions and monitors except for the U3011 and NVidia's default (which can't be deleted). But alas, even after rebooting, and despite CRU.exe showing exactly and only one monitor (and with the desired resolution), if I turn the monitor off and back on, the windows still shrink and move to the upper left. The windows all wind up the same size, which is about 640x450 pixels, according to a screenshot copied into Paint and cropped. Note that the desktop and icons do not change size, only the windows. Interestingly, if a window is zoomed to full-screen (window maximize), it does not change size when the monitor is turned off and on. One other bit of additional information: I used to also have a Samsung 213T attached, using a DVI cable, running at its native 1600x1200 resolution, and, although the windows resized and moved to the upper left, they resized to a larger size than currently. I realize that sounds weird, but it's true. Removing the second monitor and configuring the system to only have one monitor made the resizing much worse, which is why I really want to fix it this time. |
